Cycle a bike

Viewing entries tagged with 'equipment'

A pre made first-aid kit is pretty useless for cycle touring, the best idea is to buy a plastic container with clip-on lid and make your own. We're carrying two medical kits divided as follows. Hopefully this will save someone else the pain or at least give a base idea.

I should begin this blog with an apology for the recent lack of updates on my behalf. For those who don’t know, we’ve been home now for 6 months and I have only just found the frame of mind in which I feel comfortable to write again.

My brother, Nick, and his girlfriend, Carla, had booked a 3 week holiday to the Philippines to visit Carla's family at the end of January and I'd actually planned a much later arrival to coincide with them. When Carla found out Radka had gone home she realised I'd be alone for Christmas and suggested I should go one month earlier to spend it with her family. I'd set my mind on cycling to Vietnam but decided it would be really nice to meet her family and spend such a long time with them. It turned out to be a great decision :) I spent two months there in total.
